Ordering Information QA-ST MKII – Getting Started Guide 1 Terms and Abbreviations Chassis = Enclosure DUT = Device Under Test Earth = Ground Enclosure = Chassis Ground = Earth NC = Normal Condition OE = Open Earth ON = Open Neutral RM = Reverse Mains This symbol indicates that mains voltage or higher will be present in the test leads. In addition, the enclosure may be raised to mains voltage levels or higher. 2 Setup for Manual Testing 1. Plug the unit into a wall outlet with power. 2. Confirm that the only lights illuminated are the two lights in the inlet power indicator (boxed in blue). If either of these lights is not illuminated, or if any other combination of lights is illuminated, examine the wall outlet for problems in grounding or polarity. NOTE: DO NOT USE extension cords or power strips when testing with the QA-ST MKII. 3. Connect the test cable to the Enclosure port on the right side of the unit. 4. Connect the test cable clamp to the metal enclosure of your DUT. 5. Connect the patient leads to the Patient leads ports in numerical order. 6. Perform any of the QA-ST MKII electrical safety tests. 1 QA-ST MKII – Getting Started Guide 3 Setup for Automated Testing 1. Perform all steps under “Setup for Manual Testing” on the previous page. 2. Connect one end of the NULL-modem cable to the RS-232 port on the left side of the QA-ST MKII. 3. Connect the other end of the NULL-modem cable to an applicable COM port on your computer. 4. Consult the ansur test executive User Manual and the ansur QA-ST Plug-In User Manual for instructions on building and executing the automated test templates. 5. Perform any of the QA-ST MKII electrical safety tests. 4 Tests For each test listed below, the following information is provided: test name, unit of measure, and options. (“Options” include assorted, user-selectable power conditions, as well as the AC/DC measurement selection.) AC/DC Measurement Selection To select AC or DC measurements when the selection is available, press the AC/DC button. The display will reflect the change in measurement type. OE – Open Earth Test This test will break the connection of the Earth power line to the DUT. To select Open Earth measurements when the selection is available, press the open gnd button. The display will reflect the change in measurement type. ON – Open Neutral Test This test will break the connection of the Neutral/L2 power line to the DUT. To select Open Neutral measurements when the selection is available, press the open neutral button. The display will reflect the change in measurement type. 2 QA-ST MKII – Getting Started Guide (Tests, continued) RM – Reverse Mains Test This test will break both the Live/L1 and Neutral/L2 power lines to the DUT. It will then reverse the normal connection, so that what was Live/L1 is now Neutral/L2, and what was Neutral/L2 is now Live/L1. To choose Reverse Mains measurements when the selection is available, press the rev. pol button. The display will reflect the change in measurement type. ⇒ Warning! When testing units that have a large inductive load (motor), always turn OFF the DUT BEFORE reversing Mains. Mains Voltage Test – “V” This test measures the mains voltage, in volts, between Live and Neutral. Press the V button below the line voltage label, and the result will be displayed. Mains Voltage 120V Protective Earth Test – “mΩ” Protective Earth This test measures the resistance, in milliohms, 130mΩ between the enclosure of the DUT and Earth contact on the front outlet. To execute the test and display the results, connect the test lead to the enclosure of the DUT, and then press the mΩ button below the gnd wire res label. Earth Leakage Current Test – “µA” – ON, RM This test measures the current, in microamps, passing through the Earth lead. To execute the test and display the results, press the earth button below the leakage current label. Earth Leakage Current xxxµA Mains: NC ⇒ Warning! When testing units that have a large inductive load (motor), always turn OFF the DUT BEFORE reversing Mains. Enclosure Leakage Current Test – “µA” – OE, Enclosure Leakage Current ON, RM, OERM, ONRM xxxµA This test measures the leakage current, in microamps, between the enclosure of the DUT and Earth contact on the front outlet. To execute the test and display the results, connect the test lead to the enclosure of the DUT, and then press the enclosure button below the leakage current label. ⇒ Warning! When testing units that have a large inductive load (motor), always turn OFF the DUT BEFORE reversing Mains. 3 QA-ST MKII – Getting Started Guide (Tests, continued) Patient Leakage Current Lead-to-Ground Test Patient Leakage Current L-G “µA” – AC/DC, OE, ON, RM, OERM, ONRM AC ~ xxxµA This test measures the current, in microamps, from Mains: NC Lead: All the patient leads to Ground. To display the result of all leads in parallel to Ground, press the lead to GND button below the patient leakage current label. To display the leakage of an individual patient lead to Ground, repeatedly press the lead to GND button to cycle through the lead selections (1-10). ⇒ Warning! When testing units that have a large inductive load (motor), always turn OFF the DUT BEFORE reversing Mains. Patient Leakage Current Lead-to-Lead Test – Patient Leakage Current L-L “µA” – AC/DC, OE, ON, RM, OERM, ONRM AC ~ xxxµA This test measures the current, in microamps, from Mains: NC Lead 1 the selected patient lead to all other patient leads in parallel. To select and display the leakage of an individual patient lead to all other leads in parallel, repeatedly press the lead to lead button below the patient leakage current label to cycle through the lead selections (1-10). ⇒ Warning! When testing units that have a large inductive load (motor), always turn OFF the DUT BEFORE reversing Mains. Mains on Applied Part Test “µA” Mains on Applied Part – RM xxxµA Mains: NC This test measures the current, in microamps, from the patient leads to Ground when the patient leads are excited by 110% of mains voltage. To execute the test, press and hold the lead ISO button. The test will stop when the lead ISO button is released. ⇒ Warning! When testing units that have a large inductive load (motor), always turn OFF the DUT BEFORE reversing Mains. 4 QA-ST MKII – Getting Started Guide Appendix A Specifications QA-ST MK II US SUPPLY VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT Range: Accuracy: Resolution: LEAD ISO MEASUREMENTS 90 - 125V ± (2 % of reading + 2 digits) 1V • Range: • Accuracy: • Resolution: 0 – 6000 µA RMS DC and 25 to 1 kHz, ± (2 % of reading + 3 µA) 1 µA CURRENT CAPACITY INPUT IMPEDANCE 15 Amps @ 100 Volts (15 Amps limited duration) 1000 ohm, AAMI ES1-1993 load or IEC 60601-1 load 15 Amps @ 120 Volts (15 Amps limited duration) POWER CONSUMPTION GROUND WIRE RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS • Test current: • Test current accuracy: • Range: • Accuracy: • Resolution: 110 V (50/60 Hz) = 200 mA 115 V (50/60 Hz) = 200 mA AC Source – 200 mA (+5 % of reading) 0 - 1999 mΩ ± (2 % of reading + 10 mΩ) 1 mΩ GENERAL INFORMATION Temperature Requirements: + 15/59 to + 35/95 °C/F while operating 0 to + 50/122 °C/F for storage LEAKAGE CURRENT • Range: • Accuracy: • Resolution: Display: Type: Graphical: Display control: 0 – 1999 µA RMS DC and 25 to 1 kHz ± (2 % of reading + 3 µA) 1 µA PATIENT LEAKAGE CURRENT MEASUREMENTS (DC AND AC) • Range: • Accuracy: • Resolution: • Test modes: 0 – 1999 µA DC and 25 to 1 kHz, ± (2 % of reading + 3 µA) 1 µA AC and DC measurements.
